Cantina Crawling
The Guardian Unlimited has another machinima related article up covering Daniel Foucher and his MMO machinima projects. I don't believe I've watched any of these yet, but I will now!

I interviewed Daniel Foucher for this week's Online section, in an article about machinima. Machinima is the art of making films from computer game engines, and Daniel's tour de force is using players in online games to create truly engaging and captivating pieces of public performance-as-cinema. His alter ego is Javier, the mastermind behind the Cantina Crawl series in Star Wars Galaxies in which up to 160 people perform choreographed dance moves. Daniel records the footage and cuts it together, putting it to musical soundtracks. The results are fantastic.This stuff is just popping up all over the place. I remember being barely able to cover one machinima story a week, if that, on 3dfilmmaker a few years back. Now I can hardly keep up!

It seems that the awareness curve for machinima is certainly spiking this year. I'm not suprised the "Cantina Crawl" idea has become so popular. I think the idea of doing machinima inside an online universe is excellent and could produce some outstanding films. The suggestions from the article are very practical. Thanks for the link!
